Do you trot gallop or jump to notice a limp in a horse?
Trot. When a horse trots, its head stays level unless it has a limp in the front end. When the horse has a limp in the back end one of its hind quarters drops. If it is sound then they are level. When a horse is galloping it has a 'leading leg' - its two sides do not have the same movements so it is difficult to spot a limp.

How does an abscess affect a horse's ability to run?
Abscesses impede the horse's ability to walk normally. Abscesses are very painful, so horses will limp and will not run when they are in pain. However if the horse is given bute (a pain killer), the horse won't limp as much.
How do you notice a limp on horse?
The first signs you might see is if a horse is holding its front foot off the ground (resting a back leg is normal however) or limping noticeably when it walks. You should call the vet. He will probably ask you to lead the horse at a trot away from him and then towards him. The horse's head will nod when the good leg hits the ground and jerk up when the bad leg comes down. If the limp is in a hindleg, the hindquarter of the other leg will also drop when that foot hits the ground.
